About: Retired military medic used to have and to help friends and battle buddies when their animals had to go when they had to go overseas or on TDY work trips and things like that also help friends and things too. I am very by the book so if you leave me a list of rules and what needs to happen I'll make sure it gets done. I have a very open schedule. I work from home so if you need me at any point in time I can make it fit within my schedule. For the safety of your pets and things, I usually like to do a quick visit to make sure that we're going to get along. I know if it is a cat that a lot of times trust needs to be earned with them and that you can't just pull them out from wherever they're hiding a lot of times it's earning their trust for them to be come out and be friendly. You do not force it on them.
“Michelle is the best! Our dog loved her- we marveled that he was like a better dog after walking with Michelle, more relaxed and easy going. She was very communicative and it was clear how much she cares about our dog. Thank you so much Michelle!”
“Antoinette watched our 5 month old puppy while we went out to a family dinner. She was amazing with our little Mabel, kept in touch and sent pictures. Thank you so much!”
About: Growing up surrounded by a variety of animals, including cats, dogs, and chickens, I've gained hands-on experience in pet care from an early age. Whether it's the playful energy of dogs, the independent nature of cats, or the unique needs of chickens, I've learned how to provide attentive and compassionate care for each. With years of experience, I understand the importance of routine, comfort, and safety in keeping pets happy and healthy. Your pet will be in knowledgeable and caring hands with me. I am currently going to school and have a flexible schedule. I am available Mondays 6am-10pm, Tuesday 6am-10pm, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday 6am to over night. I am willing to stay at clients home to care for pets along with staying over night. During my availability I can let pets outside/hang out with them inside at any time, give needed medication, walk, and play.
About: My family has had dogs since I was 9. Since that time, I have fostered over 30 cats, dogs, kittens, and puppies. I have experience with dogs who cannot interact with other dogs on walks as well as those pups who can. My love for animals runs deep. Primarily able to do walks in the mornings and evenings. I work part time on T,W,F from 9-5. I'm happy to accommodate walks around my schedule as well as any times on Mondays and Thursdays! I will make sure to keep your pet well fed, hydrated, and safe! Their wellbeing is a priority to me. I am willing to accommodate myself for the pet's needs.
“Liana was amazingly kind and patient with our somewhat anxious dog while we were away on vacation. She quickly bonded with our dog and we had no issues for the week we were away. Thanks again!”
“Bri was super professional and thoughtful during our meet and greet, and Matcha warmed up to her immediately. She has provided us with many much appreciated walks for Matcha while we are at work for the day, and I know Matcha has a ton of fun with her! Bri is very communicative and makes us feel comfortable and confident that our pup is being cared for. Thank you, Bri!”
About: I’ve been around dogs and cats all my life and the more the merrier!

Great place to walk and play with dogs! Also have lots of cat toys and a safe friendly environment on a first floor apartment!
Fox Point dog parents share their Rover experiences
I'm very happy with my choice of Amanda to walk my dog. She's the best poop picker upper and awesome at petting dogs. I knew I had made the right choice when Dude (my dog) sat me down after dinner and said how much he appreciates that I got him such a great dog walker.
Brooke did a drop in visit for a couple of days in a row and was amazing with our two dogs! She was timely and very communicative. Her updates are the best! The dogs both really liked her and enjoyed their walks (even when it was raining one day). Will definitely book again!
What a wonderful experience. I booked a 30 minute walk for my parents puppies because my older mom just needed a minute to herself. She recently got Pebbles (Aug 21) and she’s working through the motions of getting acclimated. Nicole was so quick to accommodate the request and was very flexible about the process. My mom enjoyed their interaction and really felt safe sending the dogs with her. 10/10 recommend. Fantastic experience.
I would highly recommend hiring Crystal for your needs. She was promp and very communicative throughout the whole process. I was very hesitant at first being my first time using this service but doing a meet before hand really set my mind at ease. Not to mention my dog loved her. She kept me up to date on the walks and took some great photos. And she made sure my dogs food and water was taken care of before leaving as well.
We had such a great experience with Kimberly while we were away on vacation for four days this week. She took amazing care of our 10-month-old puppy, and we couldn’t be happier with the attention and love she gave her! Kimberly was punctual, dependable, and super communicative throughout. We really appreciated the updates and adorable photos after each walk—it gave us total peace of mind knowing our pup was in such great hands. She clearly has a natural way with dogs, and our puppy warmed up to her right away. Coming home to a happy, well-exercised pup made all the difference. We highly recommend Kimberly to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog walker. We’ll definitely be booking her again! Thank you! The Rebello's
We couldn't be more grateful to have had Gilbert as our dog walker while we were on vacation. From the very beginning, was professional, trustworthy, and—most importantly—absolutely wonderful with our dog. Gilbert took the time to understand our dog's routine, quirks, and preferences, and it showed in how happy and relaxed our pup was when we got home. He kept us updated with photos and little notes after each visit, which gave us such peace of mind while we were away. It’s clear that Gilbert genuinely cares about the pets he works with—he treated our dog like his own. If you're looking for someone dependable, kind, and truly great with animals, we wholeheartedly recommend Gilbert. We’ll definitely be booking him again! Thank you so much, The Rebello's
